An Experimental Investigation Of The New Vibration Viscometer, Jamshidbek Ulugbek Ugli Shamuratov
Technical science and innovation
The characteristics of the new oscillating-plate viscometer have been investigated experimentally. The results obtained are as follows: the resonant frequency of plate oscillation decreases with increasing viscosity; the apparatus constant πΎ determined experimentally includes the end and slip effects; the dimensions of the plate should be determined by referring to empirical relations between ππ and Ξ(β‘{(πΈππΈ)β1}π) for various dimensions of the plate; where π is the density, π is the viscosity; πΈπ the resonant amplitude of plate in the air; E the amplitude of plate in a liquid, and π a constant. If the distance between the plate and the β¦

Cells and Materials
Low frequency vibration of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement reduces the viscosity of the cement by shear thinning. The effect of this low frequency vibration on the bone-cement interface was studied using microfocal radiography (MFR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Effects were studied in-vitro and in-vivo. In-vitro, samples of Palacos low viscosity PMMA were placed on blocks of Kiel bone and vibrated. MFR and SEM demonstrated an improvement in the appearance of the bone-cement interface. In-vivo, PMMA was injected into the upper tibia of the dog. An assessment of the effect of high and low pressure injection, and the effect of β¦
